BMW R100 RS //
#BOLT32
There are bikes… and then there are BIKES.
And without a doubt, this one falls into the second category — bold, loud, and unforgettable.
Meet the #BOLT32, a custom BMW R100 RS with a pure café racer spirit and jaw-dropping presence.
The donor bike is from 1977, but thanks to the hands of our mechanics, the performance is on par with a brand-new machine.
If you’re here for the details behind this BMW R100 RS café racer build, let’s start at the front:
The front end is from a BMW K100, paired with Brembo front calipers, oversized Galfer discs, Goodridge brake lines, and CNC-machined triple clamps.
The headlight is a café racer LED, the grips are Biltwell, and it runs clip-on handlebars.
All the electronic components — speedometer, tachometer, and indicators — come from Motogadget.
While the #BOLT32 is packed with serious mechanical upgrades, what hits you first is its aesthetic.
Two things make it shine: the color combination, and a special paint finish that gives it a subtly aged, vintage effect — the perfect final touch.
Since we were chasing a café racer vibe, we opted for a black suede seat.
To make sure the owner can enjoy this beast every day, the engine was fully rebuilt.
It now runs smoother and stronger than ever.
The bike rides on AVON tires, with original BMW wheels, Highsider mirrors, and custom exhausts — handcrafted in-house by our mechanics.
It’s true — at Bolt Motor Company, we’re clearly falling in love with BMW café racers.
But make no mistake: we’re not loyal to any brand or style. Whether you’re chasing a brat, scrambler, tracker, or futuristic hybrid — if you’ve got a vision, we’ll help you bring it to life.
We’re a Valencia-based workshop specialized in café racers, but bikes of all kinds, styles, and origins have rolled out of our doors.
So, shall we talk?
